Hubble Space Telescope revisits Crab Nebula
New Delhi: The Hubble Space Telescope has revisited the Crab Nebula, a quarter century after first observing the supernova remnant in 1999-2000. The Crab Nebula is the aftermath of the supernova designated as SN 1054, located at a distance of 6,500 lightyears from the Earth in the constellation of Taurus. The star violently exploded in a supernova explosion nearly a millennium ago, creating a star so bright that it was visible even in the day fo…
